I gained friends from joining the GoPro girls at Mt. Pinatubo and was really happy to be part of that group. Angel a.k.a Lakwatserang Negra; being a surfer and almost lived in Baler, invited us to go there to surf one weekend. I’ve been to Baler before but she introduced us to a different side of Baler that not a lot of tourists are aware of. It is located on the far end of Sabang Beach.

Here are my awesome friends, Angel and Cha. Special thanks to Mami Sheng for lending her car to us😎

When we arrived, I actually just stared at the beach and enjoyed the view

That’s me taking some photos
